Gujarat Titans cross paths with Chennai Super Kings in the first match of this year's TATA IPL. The stakes are high as Gujarat Titans, the title holders, would look to start on a high, while for Chennai Super Kings, it would be a matter of bouncing back after a dismal campaign last term, which saw them finish in the ninth spot, with just four wins from 14 matches. MS Dhoni will return to action after a while and his CSK will look to put up a tough challenge in front of the home team, which Hardik Pandya will lead.

One of CSK's players to watch out for would be Ben Stokes, who the four-time champions signed for a whopping Rs 16.25 crores. He will look to make an early impact for the Chennai Super Kings, which also has several star players in Moeen Ali, Ravindra Jadeja, Devon Conway and Dhoni. Gujarat Titans on the other hand, have a pretty much similar team to that of last year, with few changes. Kane Williamson is a good addition to their middle order and the former Sunrisers Hyderabad captain will look to slot it for David Miller, who will miss this match. GT vs CSK IPL 2023 Preview: Likely Playing XIs, Key Battles, H2H and More About Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings Indian Premier League Season 16 Match 1 at Ahmedabad.
